On the Juneau team were J. and F. Orme, Livie, Nelson, Burke and Berggren. On the Douglas team were Savikko, Martin, Cashen, Fox and Johnson. The Douglas Hi girls copped ‘the basketball game from the Juneau Hi by a 21 to 11 score. It was a tougher game than the score indicates. The Islanders had to win as two games of the series had been played, Juneau as winner. Juneau girls playing were Berggren, Burke, Jenséh, Perkins, Barragar and Morrison. Douglas girls were M. and R. Fraseér, Carlson, Wahto, Sey and Riedi.

SOMETHING TO CONSIDER Senator Hugh Butler, who has been the author of considerable legislation dealing with Alaska since his trip through the Territory last year, has intro- duced & bill which would transfer to our Territorial government the administration of the Alaska Native Service or all laws relating to Indians. He believes that the Territory could handle this department more efficiently than the Federal government, and there is every reason to believe that this‘is so. The roposed law provides that the Territory would receive a Federal appropriation for this pur- pose, which is recognition of the fact that the Federal responsibility in this matter should not cease. Such legislation would further the cause of more home rule for Alaska and actually give the Indians, |ing two-thirds of the entire corp) is marketed, and {that (2) although the cold storage figures are higher | it it ks { by comparison with last year, this is not because the | oso of Chureh and world 1047 storage is abnormally high but because the 1946 [Proon e M BHOR HF s vk storage was abnormally low.

THE MERRY MORTICIAN Kenneth Wherry, Ne- “Merry Martician,” resist a snicker when names are read on the floor of the Senate. Three years ago it was he who demanded an explanation of the name, “Winnie Left Her Behind,” an Indian woman who had a claim before Congress. Senator Harlan| Bushfield of South Dakota replied | —without developing the thought— that he thought there were some | with funnier names in the Senate| than most of the Indian names. Last week Wherry again jumped up when the reading clerk made | an error in reading the bill by Montana’s Senator Zales Ecton . to authorize the issuance of at patent-| in-fee for land to an Indian lady, “Mabel Townsend Petty On Top.” Immediately Townsend was on| his feet. “What’s that?” he “What was that name?” None of his colleagues seemed interested. Wherry subsided as the clerk corrected his reading to:l “Mabel Townsend Pretty on Top.” Senator snickered. | INSIDE THE KKK Grand Dragon Green came backf to Atlanta the other day very irate to find that during a. two-weeks'| absence, some of his Klansmen had | kicked over the traces against Herman Talmadge. | So, resuming his role of Grand!

Note— Meanwhile a new Klavern is being established in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with a membership of 289 Klansmen. COLDEST TOWN IN USA. The hardy little town of Inter- national Fall, Minn.—coldest city in the U.S.A.—would rather buck 40-below temperature than buy iuel oil on the black market. Hear- ing of the town's anti-inflation fortitude, President Truman, him- self, has promised to send an emergency cargo to the rescue— |at regular. prices. International Falls almost strad- dles the Canadian border. Latest cold spell pushed the mercury out the | bottom of the thermometer. Simultaneously, certain unscrupu- lous. oil dealers brought in fresh supplies and jacked up their pri- ces. Rather than pay black-market rates, many citizens closed their homes and doubled up with relatives and neighbors. One angry group threatened to overturn an incom- ing truck, and the nervous dealer started arming his trucks. Other citizens wrote to their Congress- man, young ex-Paratrooper John Blatnik, who in turn went to see the President. Mr. Truman prom- ised immediate action. NOTE— The oil. industry . will- ingly sent ten tank cars to another Minnesota town,, St. Cloud,. which bad Jess need than shivering In- ternational Falls. The reason: St. Wright from the Northern Light Presbyterian Church, and Mesdames Frank Barlow, Mike Mercado and Roy Peratrovich from the Mem- orial Presbyterian Church.
